Description

Ritomune® is manufactured by Cipla. The key chemical compound is Ritonavir – a peptidomimetic inhibitor of the HIV-1 protease.

Indications:

- treatment of HIV type 1 infection in combination with other anti-retroviral agents.

MOA (mechanism of action):

Ritonavir is a protease inhibitor that binds to the protease active site and inhibits the activity of the enzyme. This averts cleavage of the viral polyproteins resulting in the formation of immature non-infectious viral particles. Ritonavir is also able to inhibit HIV-2 protease.

Dosage

For adults:

When used as a booster for other protease inhibitors: 100 to 400 mg/day orally in 1 or 2 divided doses.

When used solely as an anti-retroviral agent:

Initial dose: 300 mg orally twice a day; increase by 100 mg twice a day every 2 to 3 days to the full maintenance dose.

Maintenance dose: 600 mg orally twice a day.

For children (older than 1 month):

When used solely as an anti-retroviral agent:

Initial dose: 250 mg/m2 orally twice a day; increase by 50 mg/m2 twice a day every 2 to 3 days to the full maintenance dose.

Maintenance dose: 350 to 400 mg/m2 orally twice a day.

Maximum dose: 600 mg/dose.

Precautions:

HIV can be transmitted through sexual contact with HIV positive partner, blood (e.g., sharing needles, handling blood instruments, receiving blood transfusions, blood products, or organ/tissue transplants that were infected with HIV), childbirth, toiletries (razors and toothbrushes). Therefore, both HIV-positive and HIV-negative individuals are advised to have any kind of sex using a latex or polyurethane condom, avoid sharing needles or other things like toothbrushes or razors. It is important to discuss with doctor the precautions needed to avoid infecting other people as well as take precautions not to get infected.
